Definitions
- This invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for obtaining commutator synchronization information, from transmissions with a poor signal to noise ratio, which is then fed to suitable apparatus for determining the synchronization of a local transmitter keying with the keying of a master transmitter on a common frequency.
- a D.-C. pulse every time the remote signal is received.
- This D.-C. pulse is fed into sampling contacts on a commutator which keys the local transmitter.
- an error voltage is developed which can be read on a meter and corrections can then be made. It is necessary that the D.-C. pulse be as free of noise as possible and to be an accurate indication of signal on time.
- the old method of developing the D.-C. pulse was to use the D.-C. obtained by rectification of the received car rier or to filter and rectify the demodulated carrier from the receiver.
- these old methods did not work sufficiently Well in the presence of high noise levels so as to check the synchronization accurately.
- the apparatus of this invention supplies a D.-C. pulse which is an accurate replica of the signal on time.
- the radio frequency phase detector is used to produce the D.-C. pulse with the best possible signal to noise ratio.
- This pulse is then fed to a clipper amplifier which applies it to the commutator contacts, which in turn control the transmission time of the local transmitter.
- the purpose of the phase detector circuit is to produce a negative D.-C. voltage output which is then fed to the clipper amplifier circuit from which it in turn goes to commutator segments and then to the integration circuits.
- This consists of four integration circuits and essentially two vacuum tube volt meters which will give indications on the meters of zero on one meter and a positive indication on the other meter when the two transmitters are in synchronization.
- a further object is the provision of a method and apparatus for obtaining synchronization information for keying a local transmitter with a master transmitter on a common frequency.
- a further object is the provision of apparatus for receiving a remote transmitted signal and for supplying in response thereto a D.-C. pulse with a high signal to noise ratio for comparison in time with a local transmitter keyed signal.
- a remote signal is received at remote signal input 11 where it is passed through the remote amplifiers 12, 13, and 14 to transformer 16. From the transformer it then passes to the four phase detectors 17, 18, 19, 21, which are provided in phase relationship. These detectors are necessary since the arriving signal might be of any phase. In order for the detectors to operate, a reference signal of the same frequency as the remote signal is fed into input 22, amplified at 23, passed through phase shifting network 24 which produces two signals of 90 shift. These signals are applied to the appropriate phase detectors to produce the four outputs which are 90 phase relationship. These detectors, together with the automatic gain control 26 are for the purpose of providing an output of constant polarity and amplitude.
- detectors 17, 18, 19, and 21 are dual diodes having four D.-C. outputs connected to the grids of cathode followers 27a, 27b, 28a, and 28b which are used to avoid loading of the phase detectors.
- the outputs of the cathode followers are applied to two sets of four germanium diodes arranged as gates as shown in the drawing.
- One set of diodes selects the most positive going cathode of the cathode followers and applies the signal to the automatic volume control (AVC) tube 26 grid.
- the other set of four selects the most negative going cathode and applies the signal to the input of the amplifier circuit 33.
- the AVC tube 26 is fed back to the grids of the signal amplifiers 12, 13 preceding the phase detectors through an appropriate time constant pro vided by capacitor 34 and resistor 36.
- Both local and remote signals come into the remote signal input 11 on a time sharing basis. It is desired to hold the remote signal amplifier gain such that the required voltage can be fed to the phase detector circuit from the remote signal. However, to do this when the local signal is on, it would increase the AVG voltage and when it is time for the remote signal to come back on, the AVG voltage would be too great, obscuring the effect of the remote signal. This is corrected by tube 37.
- the plate of the right side of dual diode 37 is connected to the grid of the AVG and the cathode to the long contact on the commutator which keys the local transmitter.
- the cathode of the tube on the right side can be grounded just before the local transmitter comes on to the air, grounding the grids of the AVG tube.
- tube 37 clamps the AVC to ground so that no AVC information is fed to amplifiers 12 and 13. This does not affect the output of the cathode followers but it does change the AVG voltage which is sent back to the other half of tube 37.
- the grid of the AVG tube 26 is ungrounded and once again permits a remote signal to produce AVC information which is applied to amplifiers 12 and 13.
- control tube 3'7 serves as a clamp tube to prevent the grids of tubes 12, 13 from going positive in the absence of signal. Since AVC tube 26 is controlled through a time constant determined bycapacitor 38 and resistor 39 in the D.-C. output of the phase detector, it is not actuated by noise and only operates when a signal coherent with the local reference is received.
- the negative D.-C. pulse from the cathode followers 27a, 27b, 28a, 28b is suitably amplified by clipper amplifier circuit 33 before passing to the commutator segments (not shown).
- the commutator is the same one that is keying the local transmitter. If this D.-C. pulse is not fed to the commutator in proper timing relationship error voltages will occur in integration circuit 41 and give meter indications which indicate improper synchronization. The commutator phase is then adjusted until the proper meter indications are obtained, which in turn indicates the proper synchronization.

COMMUTATOR ,SYNCHRONIZER Filed Aug. 3, 1955 IN VENTOR. WILLIAM E. SCOV/LLE Arron/VH5 United States Patent 9 COMMUTATOR SYNCHRONIZER Wiliiam E. Scoville, Albuquerque, N. Mex.
Application August 3, 1955, Serial No. 526,337
8 Claims. (Cl. 250-27) (Granted under Title 35, U. S. Code (1952), sec. 266) The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefor.
This invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for obtaining commutator synchronization information, from transmissions with a poor signal to noise ratio, which is then fed to suitable apparatus for determining the synchronization of a local transmitter keying with the keying of a master transmitter on a common frequency. In a system used for commutator synchronization, it is necessary to develop a D.-C. pulse every time the remote signal is received. This D.-C. pulse is fed into sampling contacts on a commutator which keys the local transmitter. When these D.-C. pulses are not in the proper relationship in time, an error voltage is developed which can be read on a meter and corrections can then be made. It is necessary that the D.-C. pulse be as free of noise as possible and to be an accurate indication of signal on time.
The old method of developing the D.-C. pulse was to use the D.-C. obtained by rectification of the received car rier or to filter and rectify the demodulated carrier from the receiver. However, these old methods did not work sufficiently Well in the presence of high noise levels so as to check the synchronization accurately.
The apparatus of this invention supplies a D.-C. pulse which is an accurate replica of the signal on time. In the present method, the radio frequency phase detector is used to produce the D.-C. pulse with the best possible signal to noise ratio. This pulse is then fed to a clipper amplifier which applies it to the commutator contacts, which in turn control the transmission time of the local transmitter. The purpose of the phase detector circuit is to produce a negative D.-C. voltage output which is then fed to the clipper amplifier circuit from which it in turn goes to commutator segments and then to the integration circuits. This consists of four integration circuits and essentially two vacuum tube volt meters which will give indications on the meters of zero on one meter and a positive indication on the other meter when the two transmitters are in synchronization.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an improved method and apparatus for obtaining commutator synchronization information.
A further object is the provision of a method and apparatus for obtaining synchronization information for keying a local transmitter with a master transmitter on a common frequency.
A further object is the provision of apparatus for receiving a remote transmitted signal and for supplying in response thereto a D.-C. pulse with a high signal to noise ratio for comparison in time with a local transmitter keyed signal.
Other objects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will be readily appreciated as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description when considered in connection with the Patented Jan. 7, 1958 accompanying drawing which represents a schematic diagram of the phase detecting circuit, clipper amplifier circuit and integration circuit showing connections to the commutator (not shown).
A remote signal is received at remote signal input 11 where it is passed through the remote amplifiers 12, 13, and 14 to transformer 16. From the transformer it then passes to the four phase detectors 17, 18, 19, 21, which are provided in phase relationship. These detectors are necessary since the arriving signal might be of any phase. In order for the detectors to operate, a reference signal of the same frequency as the remote signal is fed into input 22, amplified at 23, passed through phase shifting network 24 which produces two signals of 90 shift. These signals are applied to the appropriate phase detectors to produce the four outputs which are 90 phase relationship. These detectors, together with the automatic gain control 26 are for the purpose of providing an output of constant polarity and amplitude.
As shown in the drawing, detectors 17, 18, 19, and 21 are dual diodes having four D.-C. outputs connected to the grids of cathode followers 27a, 27b, 28a, and 28b which are used to avoid loading of the phase detectors. The outputs of the cathode followers are applied to two sets of four germanium diodes arranged as gates as shown in the drawing. One set of diodes selects the most positive going cathode of the cathode followers and applies the signal to the automatic volume control (AVC) tube 26 grid. The other set of four selects the most negative going cathode and applies the signal to the input of the amplifier circuit 33. The AVC tube 26 is fed back to the grids of the signal amplifiers 12, 13 preceding the phase detectors through an appropriate time constant pro vided by capacitor 34 and resistor 36.
Both local and remote signals come into the remote signal input 11 on a time sharing basis. It is desired to hold the remote signal amplifier gain such that the required voltage can be fed to the phase detector circuit from the remote signal. However, to do this when the local signal is on, it would increase the AVG voltage and when it is time for the remote signal to come back on, the AVG voltage would be too great, obscuring the effect of the remote signal. This is corrected by tube 37. The plate of the right side of dual diode 37 is connected to the grid of the AVG and the cathode to the long contact on the commutator which keys the local transmitter. By selecting the proper commutator segment which also keys the local transmitter and by using a long contact on the transmitter, the cathode of the tube on the right side can be grounded just before the local transmitter comes on to the air, grounding the grids of the AVG tube. In this manner when the local transmitter is on, tube 37 clamps the AVC to ground so that no AVC information is fed to amplifiers 12 and 13. This does not affect the output of the cathode followers but it does change the AVG voltage which is sent back to the other half of tube 37. A short time after the local transmitter goes off, the grid of the AVG tube 26 is ungrounded and once again permits a remote signal to produce AVC information which is applied to amplifiers 12 and 13.
The other half of control tube 3'7 serves as a clamp tube to prevent the grids of tubes 12, 13 from going positive in the absence of signal. Since AVC tube 26 is controlled through a time constant determined bycapacitor 38 and resistor 39 in the D.-C. output of the phase detector, it is not actuated by noise and only operates when a signal coherent with the local reference is received.
The negative D.-C. pulse from the cathode followers 27a, 27b, 28a, 28b is suitably amplified by clipper amplifier circuit 33 before passing to the commutator segments (not shown). The commutator is the same one that is keying the local transmitter. If this D.-C. pulse is not fed to the commutator in proper timing relationship error voltages will occur in integration circuit 41 and give meter indications which indicate improper synchronization. The commutator phase is then adjusted until the proper meter indications are obtained, which in turn indicates the proper synchronization.
Obviously many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in the light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that within the scope of the appended claims the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
